APPLE Pickleball


The APPLE Athletic Club pioneered pickleball in Idaho Falls.  We all owe a huge tip-o-the-paddle to APPLE's consistent, long-term support for pickleball.

There are three indoor courts with portable nets set up in the APPLE gym.  Drop-in pickleball takes place five days each week:
  • Tuesday/Thursday from 11:30am to 1:50pm
  • Wednesdays from 12 noon to 2pm
  • Fridays from 1pm to 3pm
  • Sundays from 1:30pm to 3:30pm

Generally about 16-20 players attend each session.  Player rotation is based on a winner-loser board that we will describe in more detail in a later post.  Skill levels among the APPLE regular players varies from Beginner to Advanced.  The bulk of the players are at least solid 3.0 players with many 3.5's and a sprinkling of 4.0 players.

Austen Felton and Liz Painter are in charge of the APPLE Pickleball program.
